About this fabric

The close weave is visibly built from tiny horizontal and vertical threads, creating a subtle crosshatch rather than a printed motif. In this Thunder colourway, the grey shifts gently between charcoal and blue-slate tones as the texture catches the light, preventing the dark ground from appearing flat. Catalogued as a fabric, it has a versatile visual weight that suits both upholstered pieces and softly structured window treatments. The understated surface makes its depth more apparent at close range.

How to use it

Pair Kensey Thunder with chalky whites, pale stone and brushed metal for a cool contemporary scheme, or use it on a statement chair to anchor softer blue-grey furnishings. Its dark slate tone also works well as a quiet contrast to warm timber.

Use this cool slate-grey weave to bring quiet structure and depth to upholstery, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
